Description
People who were sick or disabled were considered a burden on the German nation. Starting in 1934, up to 400, 000 people were forcibly sterilised and more than 200, 000 were murdered in mental hospitals and institutions. The exhibition looks at the ways of thinking and actions that made this mass murder possible.
